Good News In Tallahassee Real Estate

As I was assembling the 12th Edition of the Tallahassee Real Estate Newsletter (which goes out to all subscribers later this morning), I was happy to find that there were good signs showing up in many of my reports. For the past three years, we have been reporting nothing but declining home sales in Tallahassee, but today finally brings a different story.

As a little preview for what subscribers will be able to find in the newsletter, the following real estate graph shows home sales activity in the Tallahassee MLS. This data represents the entire MLS, not just the immediate Tallahassee housing market. Even with all of the surrounding counties included in the report, we see good things occurring.

Good News Comes In Threes In Tallahassee Real Estate

The real estate graph above reports three important trends in the Tallahassee MLS. All three trends are doing better than last month:

1. The green line shows that the number of homes sold over the past year rose (for the first time in over 3 years)
2. The red line shows that the number of homes for sale in the Tallahassee MLS declined again
3. The purple line shows that relative home supply (months of supply of homes) has been dropping since April

The Next Cycle Phase In Tallahassee Real Estate

As excited as we are to see home sales on the rise, it is important to note that the next cycle phase will include falling prices and reduced inventories. The supply of homes will seek market equilibrium at 6.0 months of supply, but until then, the buyers' market remains and pressure will still exist on home prices.

Joe Wrote The Book On How To Sell A Home Today

WARNING: The Internet & digital marketing systems have changed the way sellers need to market a home for sale. It's not about getting a home sold anymore, it's about getting a home sold and netting the most money from the sale.

To do this, a seller needs to hit the digital market hard in a coordinated effort that alerts ready-buyers (all at the same time) to ensure buyers understand they are competing for the right to buy the home.

While it only takes ONE buyer to sell a home, it takes MULTIPLE BUYERS for the seller to bid the property up to its highest value in today's market. You see our full explanation about how to sell a house here, or you can buy the book and really get into the nuts and bolts of selling a home in the digital age.

Get the book that explains it all, in a manner that is understanding to all, even technology neophytes. It's available on Amazon, a trusted source for consumers.
